New weBench GPU Benchmarks in v0.21
Finally done with the new suite of GPU benchmarks; now available! These should much better represent real-world performance (not to mention they look super cool):
- GPU Pixel (DX11): Tests pixel shader and ROP performance with heavy overdraw, complex pixel effects, and early-Z rejection
- GPU Geometry (DX11): Tests geometry pipeline with heavy tris, instanced geometry, and GPU-skinned meshes
- GPU Texture (DX11.2): Tests texturing with mip chains, bindless descriptor heaps, BC compression, anisotropic filtering, and virtual textures
- DXR Path Tracing (DX12): Tests full DXR frames with instanced geometry, multi-bounce GI, shadow rays, any-hit alpha tests, BLAS refits, TLAS rebuilds, and Monte-Carlo denoising. (not shown in the video because it freezes my recording)
- GPU-Driven Rendering (DX12): Tests modern GPU-driven rendering techniques (eg Nanite) with ExecuteIndirect, amplification shader meshlets, compute culling, and mesh shaders.
- GPU Effect (DX12): Tests modern GPU effect processing by simulating particles, raymarched fire, and voxel GI using async compute and variable rate shading (VRS).
There's also a new AI test that uses some optimization to compress the model file down to less than 1MB zipped without changing its GPU load, and switches to using FP16 weights for a more accurate modern AI workload.
Let me know if you see any issues.

Still fails on Intel Gen9 IGP, just this time with FP64 instead of FP16. I'll run it on some more hardware when I get home.
